Cache-Memory Battery-Backup Management IC
General Description
The DS2731 is a complete power-management solution
for modular backup applications. It is well-suited for 2.5V
and below memory bus voltages, with an input voltage of
12V. The DS2731 includes an internal MOSFET switching
power stage for charging a one-cell lithium chemistry bat-
tery. It has a fully integrated synchronous buck regulator
capable of supplying up to 450mA of cache backup sup-
ply current, and the necessary logic and power devices
for handling the switchover from system power to battery
power. The battery charging method of the DS2731 is
constant current/constant voltage (CCCV). Output voltage
can be margined from 3.8V to 4.6V using a resistor-
divider. Charge is terminated when the charging current
falls below 5% of full charge current. Switchover to battery
backup is initiated by an internal comparator and occurs
automatically when a sensed-input voltage drops below
2.93V. At light loads, the 2MHz internal synchronous buck
regulator operates in burst mode for maximum efficiency.
All nonessential functions of the DS2731 are disabled
while supplying holdup current to the cache memory, and
the IC goes into very low-current dormant mode when the
battery voltage drops below a user-settable threshold.
The DS2731 keeps track of charge status and signals the
user through open-drain I/O pins that can be used to
drive LEDs.
